The Hills of Homicide

For the first time in book form, here is a collection of
Louis L'Amour detective stories--vivid tales as memorable and
exciting as his beloved frontier fiction. Each story is
personally selected, with an introduction, by the Louis.

In the dark alleys of the pulsing cities and the savage
criminal wilderness, Louis L'Amour introduces a new brand of
characters: men like Kip Morgan, the ex-fighter turned
detective who is tough enough to bounce a bouncer, yet has
more up his sleeve than sheer muscle; Joe Ragan, dedicated
career cop who fears nothing in the pursuit of justice; and
women whose soft laughter covers their underlying cruelty.

These are fast-moving stories of brawls where once a man goes
down and doesn't get up fast enough he's through, of flashing
knives that whisper death, of guns that blaze their fatal
file through the blackest nights.
